Hi Pj, Thank you for you reply (and your wonderful Hacking Guide https://gitlab.com/pjotrp/guix-notes/blob/master/HACKING.org)! I tried the command and it didn't work... I use Guix System (not a foreign distribution) as described at the bottom :-) -Yasu On Fri, 2020-12-04 at 19:55 +0100,

Question about Guix on Novena - mainly U-Boot

Hi Danny! You may want to try to set "CONFIG_PREBOOT=\"usb start; sata init; part list sata 0 -bootable devplist\"". I do something similar to execute "dhcp" to enable booting via tftp. Maybe take a look at my recent patch¹ as well, which aims to ease such configuration changes. Bye Stefan

Declaring channel dependencies in the operating-system configuration

Hi Guix! One thing that I've often found to be annoying was manually adding a channels.scm file to systems, and I've come up with a solution that I'd like to share. For those interested in having their channels.scm be added as part of the system generation process, just do the following. Create

Re: Question about Guix on Novena - mainly U-Boot

For reference, the config.scm I used was: (use-modules (gnu) (gnu bootloader u-boot)) (use-service-modules networking ssh desktop) (use-package-modules bootloaders screen ssh linux) ;;; Note: Maybe better: linux-libre-arm-generic ;;; Note: Novena upstream uses Kernel 3.19 (operating-system

Question about Guix on Novena - mainly U-Boot

Hi, I'm still in the process of setting up the Novena as a GNU Mes for ARM build machine. Guix system on Novena from sd card finally works. Now I want to make it boot it from SATA instead. So I did the following: (1) Used cp -a to copy over everything from the sd card / to the sata drive

Re: guix environment: error: cannot create container: unprivileged user cannot create user namespaces

Hi everyone! I use both: * Guix System with Linux(non-Libre) Kernel, straight on my desktop PC * Guix System on Linux subsystem on Windows 10 (https://github.com/giuliano108/guix-packages/blob/master/notes/Guix-on-WSL2.md) on Microsoft Surface Book and both started to exhibit the same problem

Re: guix environment: error: cannot create container: unprivileged user cannot create user namespaces

Hi Ricardo, No, it wasn't enough. (I could be wrong - I am still learning Guix. ) But I spent a lot of time picking my hair out, trying to figure out why guix edit hello would not find the scm file under my locally checked out guix repository. When I followed the instructions on the link,

Hi, Thanks for the report. Are you using Guix System or Guix on foreign? On Fri, 4 Dec 2020 at 16:53, yasu wrote: > I rely on the -C option below to compile ./pre-inst-env . Aside that nothing, --pure, or -C should work. The nothing could not, depending on your setup. Anyway. >

Hi Guix Development, I rely on the -C option below to compile ./pre-inst-env . guix environment -C guix (I learned the technique through https://gitlab.com/pjotrp/guix-notes/blob/master/INSTALL.org - ./pre-inst-env just won't compile correctly unless I follow the instructions on the page)

Re: Questionable "cosmetic changes" commits

Hi Raghav, first, let me say that as far as I'm concerned, you did nothing wrong--although it caused a lot of work for you to do the rearranging in the first place (and also some work for us). Guix irregularities also annoy the hell out of me. You can check out some earlier patches by me (when
